  1. to you brassmeaway: I haven't been on this board but maybe twice in about 2-3 months. The last time I even posted here before last night was back in like September. In the offseason I don't come here very often. I ask you this: Am I not allowed to ask a simple question?!?!? Is there something wrong with this?!?!? Because if there is, don't reply to the thread. Take your complaints directly to the administrator.

    I believe that there is a Search feature on these forums, and you should better acquaint yourself with it. Now obviously if this topic was seldomly raised, I wouldn't care, but we get this very often and it gets quite annoying. It usually leads to rumors and so-on, and we all know how much we love rumors. Anyway, lesson learned. Move along.

  2. i was actually going to say that, but i thought i'd be alone in that opinion.

    You'd be suprised. There was a thread a while back about your personal favorite show, and when I put BD 2000 down, it was like they all came out of the woodwork with the same opinion. They didn't think anybody else liked it. I just wish that it wouldn't have been so dirty finals night so that it could've won. Personally, I think that show had the best thematic presentation and performance. But man, that low brass is what makes the show.

  3. 2004 Blue Devils during the drum feature the tempo reached near 260bpm for a short while.

    Otherwise, for sustained tempos the top corps usually do stuff at over 200 at some point in their shows.

    I think it was supposed to in theory, but I highly doubt it actually did. Props for trying, though.

  4. Sorry, but I just got the '96 Legacy DVD, and I noticed a motif from Star's "Medea" closer in BD's '96 show. Am I hearing things? Anybody who knows for sure, please respond. :)

    Oh yeah, and I know the rest of BD's closer is from the MI soundtrack by Danny Elfman, "Trouble."

    You mean the backfield stuff? Kind of like a slowed down version of the medea lick?

    That parts also the beginning of Crown's 2002 show.

  5. Yes,I am blaming DCI.

    People ,organizations etc need to take responsibility;

    something very much lacking in today's socirty.

    We need look no furtherf than the mlb sterioud case.

    Anyway,it is now a CD I can no longer give as a gift to others.

    I especially cannot give it to a friend's family who attended their 1st show at Gillette.

  6. The only grain of truth I can detect in the original post, based upon what I've heard over the years from people associated with one corps or the other, is that if you auditioned for one corps and they counldn't use you, but the other corps still had openings for your instrument, you would be pointed in that direction.

    Well yes, and that's also true amongst corps outside of YEA! aswell.
